Sorry I'm really new to all of this.
I got everyting to work until the last line of modprobe ndiswrapper.
It spits back-Error inserting ndiswrapper (/lib/modules/2.6.15.6/misc/ndiswrapper.ko): Invalid module format.
I'm sure I'm just missing something, but any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Ha! I didn't know you could bypass the version check... That's why my tutorial involves recompilation of the kernel *slaps forehead*

its one of the first things you learn (albeit the hard way) when you mess around with the kernel and drivers. In my line, we got no time to make it pretty - we just make it work.

If you want to avoid the "-f" option, just open hexedit and edit the ndiswrapper.ko and change gcc-3.4.x to gcc-3.3.x. Need to check dmesg to find out exactly what the version conflict was and edit the ndiswrapper.ko file accordingly with hexedit.

The modules for wpa_supplicant with madwifi support and ndiswrapper that I made (without recompiling the kernal :P) and distributed to some members are working fine. If you come across anyone else who wants them, point them my way and I'll mail it to them - its just too big to upload here.

EDIT : 30th July 2006

The ndiswrapper module and wpa_supplicant modules I created can now be downloaded from here:

Whose instructions did you follow? You can download the ndisw.zip from the sites I listed in my post and try that. That one works for sure.
